Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 0.14%

Expect muted gains today.

According to OCBC, gains on Wall Street overnight could bring a much need sense of relief to the local bourse today, although the overall tone is likely to remain cautious.

Here’s more from OCBC:

We peg the immediate support at 2800, ahead of its next support level at 2740; on the upside, we peg the initial hurdle at 2850, ahead of 2875.

After a four-day losing streak, with the index down another 0.1% Thursday, the STI does look due for a technical rebound, even though the daily RSI is still some distance away from showing oversold signal.

Overall volume shrank 21.4% with 1.5b units traded, and the total value rose 13.7% to S$1.3b; while average value/unit climbed 44.7% to S$0.82.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
